The problem with most open world games is that they are as vast as an ocean but as shallow as a puddle. With lots of busy work, like collecting 100 of some item, this has been most Ubisofts open world games.
I've been addicted to the Star Wars: Outer Rim board game recently, so I'm cautiously interested in a Star Wars game where you can play as a scoundrel. Outlaws doesn't seem like it will blow anyone away, but if it's a fun game about exploring the Star Wars galaxy then that's all I'm really asking for.
This looks way better than I thought it would. Looks like Watch Dogs (or AC) meets Star Wars. I love exploring in these games so I can’t wait to play it.
@@arkhamknight7236But they still do make singleplayer games. Also they cared about multiplayer experiences since GTAIV. Max Payne 3 had great multiplayer.
@@TurboLightsomeone said it, regardless of them focusing on the online component of GTA Online, they still crafted some of the greatest stories in video games, and that’s what a lot of people consider them to be best at.
It’s possible, but it won’t be for a few months. The game doesn’t release until November, so a likely date for something like this would be late September or October.
They should have made it that you can play as more characters like a jedi, sith, bounty hunter, a wookie would also be preety neat but anyways great video as always
Yeah that would have been great, sadly the DEI obsession of these companies prevent them from doing this. It is of great importance for Ubisoft that we play as a latina looking female
@@laverdad159 and your comment is completely futile. To start, I am fighting no one. Secondly, you know I am right so you fall back to a banal comment like “touch grass”. Enjoy the game, more power to you
I agree with you saying that you don't necessarily need to play as a Jedi/Sith/Force user to have a good game, as Star Wars The Old Republic allows you to choose to play as a Smuggler, Imperial Agent, Trooper, or Bounty Hunter, alongside Jedi and Sith. And I always loved the Smuggler Storyline. So it definitely is something that can work really well.
Can you do a full play through of outlaws when it releases? You’re my favorite AC RUclipsr and I’d love to get some more thoughts from you on Star Wars.
It seems like if you’re the type of player that knows what you’re getting into with an Ubisoft open world title you’ll probably get what you expect. Ubi games in recent years (goty nod to Odyssey aside) have basically been the summer blockbuster popcorn flicks or junkfood of gaming. You don’t go in expecting 2005 era Ubisoft or a masterpiece, you go in expecting an entertaining game that you can kind of shut your brain off for. My only worry is this is Ubisoft Massive. They have beautiful engine tech, and I do like The Division. But Avatar’s open world design and story left a lot to be desired. Despite being absolutely stunning visually. Maybe that’s just a limitation of the IP (I don’t really care for bow combat being the primary means of combat and it’s why I didn’t vibe with Far Cry Primal either). But this isn’t Montreal or Quebec and Massive still has to make a name for itself in the single player space. Expectations are not sky high, and hopefully it at least delivers on the relatively low bar I’ve set for it.
Honestly, I feel like if Rockstar made an open world Star Wars, after the success of RDR2.. and all the GTAs… I bet that would be a dope game and an amazing developer choice. Don’t get me wrong Ubisoft knows how to do an open world… but Rockstar has perfected it.
@@ApsmneShsbshu A lot of people apparently went to Asia for the event. I've seen several previews of it that were streamed instead of played locally, and most of them were westerners.
I ended up preordering this and I'm very excited for it, i do love Ubisoft open worlds and i love star wars games. Thanks for the video man, good to get more opinions on it
Ubisoft open worlds are great it's usually the staggering size of them that make them annoying that ruin the recent games. But with star wars you have fast ships, and high tech transport that won't make it feel like a chore to traverse the world quickly
@Fafnir2000 yeah that's a big ass con what ubi did bribing reviews maybe they're tired of backlash 🤷🏾♂️idk. I don't see how they're shaming folks with ac shadows lol seriously tho. Aren't games like ac based on FICTIONAL history lmao mfs mad cause yasuke skin color and he seems to masculine, if he was feminine af they'd be coo with it
@Fafnir2000 well if he wasn't black they wouldn't be trippin tho, if he was white they'd trip about it a bit but wouldn't be for long. If he was a regular fiction Japanese guy they'd accept
@Fafnir2000 but not a black man in a black like setting ? Lmao nobody was being all sensitive when you play as Michael in gta 5 and go mess around in Franklin's hood, folks are just sensitive af nowadays no fun at all lmao
Looks better than I was expecting but the I could see the mini games being disrupting to the flow of stealth, either way still prolly gonna consider this
I am going to play this game. I dont understand how so many people are hating this game, before they even played it. Ubisoft did many crazy things in the past and there price policy is bad. But they also made some of the greatest games. Let's give their new games a chance. Thats what I gonna do. Hate is always bad, especially for the person who sends it. In the end, its just a game. If you are not interested in something, than dont buy it and move on. This toxic behavior latetly is crazy.....
Game doesn't even look that bad people just have standards way too high these days I really couldnt care less if the main character is pretty or not or if the graphics are ultra realistic and shit I'm playing a video game to play the game
I have no idea why they didn't give her a stun baton, or the ability to get one trough progression. This is supposedly the premier scoundrel experience and so far it all looks extremely wacky and underwhelming.
im excited for this game i don’t expect it to be super good like borderlands games but im sure it’ll be fun for at least a few hours… 70 dollars for 8 to 10 hours of fun is good! 😮😅
@@Automaton237 not if won’t of the skill teachers are a Jedi in hiding they could teach us lightsaber safety or we could come across a holocron or even just a data pad on the subject say on the black market
It's nicer to see ubi making decent games recently yes I know skull and bones but that would hopefully be a 1 time thing and they should hopefully be on the up
@@finlaylyons6504 Uh, no. What rock have you been living under? People in Japan are pissed about that game. They've even started talking about it in the news there. The professor who was supposedly some kind of expert on Yasuke that Ubisoft used as a consultant was even fired from the university in Japan because he lied.
I'm excited for Star Wars Outlaws I'm pre-ordering in a few days ps5 physical stranded version at the Gamestop I shop at. It will be the 4th game I buy this year.
For all of those complaining about the goofy takedowns... I think they were actually trying to make it feel like you are taking place in the original trilogy. For example this is how I would expect a movie from the 70s-80s to portrait stealth... I don't think realism matters as much here if you think of it as an artistic choice
What about the bad sides like the goofy AI or the world feeling empty ? I’m genuinely interested in this game but everyone is blowing hot and cold and I don’t really know what to think. I’m afraid Ubi is « bribing » content creators to sell better and I don’t want to find myself with a « meh » game
Stormtrooper armor wasn't that great so if she does punch a stormtrooper hard enough she can knock them unconscious it's really not that far fetched they're practically wearing plastic.
There's too many games with lightsabers and even then it wouldn't make sense she's a normal Bounty Hunter she can't just pick up a lightsaber and deflect blasters she's most likely to injure herself does that sound fun accidentally cutting off your head using a lightsaber.
@@geekinoffamolly8230 it wouldn't make sense. People would just complain that it breaks Cannon that a random Bounty Hunter could use a lightsaber efficiently and not get injured and I'm sure some people would complain that it's woke because a woman character is somehow uses a light saber like a master and deflecting Blaster bolts when she isn't force sensitive.
man I can't wait to get it I'm so excited seeing that fact you can use a motorcycle like vehicle kinda for some reason remind me of days gone I don't know why but it does
@@EL63539so you are saying that every single person that opposes woke ideologies are involuntarily celibate? What a stupid take. That is why it’s projecting
Did you watch the video he criticized the takedown animations and compare them to the Obi-Wan Kenobi scene where the Stormtroopers got slapped and got knocked unconscious and I'm pretty sure he also mentioned that the story wasn't that interesting to be honest the game play he showed was pretty alright definitely not great just okay probably like a seven or six out of 10.
The takedown animations look straight out of AC Syndicate's goofy combat 😭
Nice seeing you here
Those sneaking animations are around since Unity so...
🐧
Look, syndicate have a lot of flaws, but combat and stealth aren't part of them
Kinda fits imo. But yeah I see whatchu mean
The problem with most open world games is that they are as vast as an ocean but as shallow as a puddle. With lots of busy work, like collecting 100 of some item, this has been most Ubisofts open world games.
The good thing about this game is it seems to be nearly the opposite of that. Slightly smaller open world areas that are handcrafted.
@@AlphaMachinaI hope they include Minecrafted
What should an open world game be? How would you design one?
I mean, when Sony exclusives does it like GoT and HZD, it's totally fine right. We can only hate Ubisoft :)
Metro Exodus decimated open world games.
Hopefully we can get more open world Star Wars game or linear games
Unfortunately I don't have a PS5

This looks way better than I thought it would. Looks like Watch Dogs (or AC) meets Star Wars. I love exploring in these games so I can’t wait to play it.
I played this game and I think it’s very average. Bit boring sometimes
I know this is off-topic but I really think you should make a series where you play every AC game and the video ends when you die BUT without any HUD.
If only Rockstar made a Star Wars game.
Only for it to have the worst missions again
